Record Book Shattered in All-Star Football Classic

NORFOLK – Is there a record for most records broken? Because the 2018 Northeast Nebraska All-Star Football Classic probably broke that one, too.

The record books were rewritten in the White’s 40-35 win over the Red on Saturday. The teams combined unofficially for 1,017 yards, finding more success through the air than this game had even seen.

The previous five All-Star Classics failed to produce a 100-yard receiver, while Saturday’s game produced three: Stone Kraft of Battle Creek and Cody Nelson of Boone Central/Newman Gove for the White, and Mason Lee of Wayne, whose remarkable day included 10 receptions (including a hook-and-lateral at the end of the first half) for 255 yards and 3 touchdowns, the last of which came as time expired.

O’Neill’s Alex Thramer set new high marks for passing, breaking Taylor Reedy’s (Norfolk) record for most completions and Gunner Fuelberth’s (Norfolk) record for most passing yards.

Remarkably, in a game with this much offense, a new defensive record was set as well. Crofton’s Jaden Janssen set the new mark for most tackles, with 13.
